No

I swear that if some newb or even for that matter someone who doesn't even own an fb asks where the hell to get that body kit I will find some way to ban you...lol...just kidding of course but seriously I think that everyone at one point in time excluding myself of course has asked where to get that "custom" body kit.

Notice the individual master cylinder reservoirs...where did he get those? And the ignition looks to be mounted in the passenger footwell behind the firewall, nice touches.
